From the President’s Desk

Looking back over the years, I realized

that the memories I have from JMH are

not of the building itself, but mostly the

many friends, teachers and staff whom I

hold dear. Our school building, as we

know it, was replaced by a modern,

beautiful structure with a new concept

and hope for the future. Several architec-

tural features from our building were

incorporated, merging the old with the

new. While the building does not look

like ‘our school’ (for those of us who

attended between 1932-2012), it still is

John Marshall High School. After all, a

building does not MAKE a school.

We are happy to report that The Cleve-

land Browns will be paying for the instal-

lation of an artificial turf football field

this summer.

Please check our website for further in-

formation regarding an Alumni Event at

one of the Senate games or call our num-

ber provided. For those of you who have

asked, at this time, no plans are being

made for a new track or stands.

As many of you know, we had a Message

Board in front of the old JMH, provided

by the Alumni Association in 1999. The

sign was then moved to the temporary

site at Shuler and never returned to the

new school. The school will be conduct-

ing meetings to see how a new, modern

electronic controlled message board can

be acquired. Stay tuned – we may be

asked for help from the school!

Our annual newsletter keeps your mem-

ories ‘fresh’. Your continued financial

support allows us through our operating

funds, to provide those memories to

you.

Our fundraisers, original bricks, Alumni

Plaza pavers and merchandise, help sup-

port our endowment fund providing

scholarships to students each year and

other school group requests. Your annu-

al support is truly appreciated – without

YOU, we could not exist.

Thank you, Ken Tischler 1/57

2016 Scholarship Recipients

Page 3 John Marshall Alumni Association News Volume 44, No. 1

News from the School On December 22, 2016, the Air Force ROTC group presented Col-

ors at a send- off for Special Ed teacher Gary Harvey. A while ago

He had reenlisted with the National Guard. Recently he was called

to duty beginning in January 2017, to serve in Jordan for the up-

coming year. John Marshall students, staff, friends, family and

Alumni attended to help surprise him with this farewell. He was

presented with a Kindle Fire – to keep in touch with family and his

JMH family, along with a ‘lone boot’ with his name in it, from the

ROTC Officer Shaw. We’re sure there is a story behind

that! William Kubik, 6/59, a Navy Veteran, also attended the

ceremony along with his family – Karen Dotson, JMH Sp. Ed staff

and Megan Dotson, Sp. Ed Paraprofessional for Gary.

The first wrestling match of the season was held on December 8th –

between John Marshall, Glenville, St. Gabriel and Maple Hts. This

was to be the Alumni Night – unfortunately very few alumni at-

tended. So mark your calendars for the next year – this will be an

annual event. In attendance though, were JMH wrestlers Bill Var-

ga, 1/41, a State Wrestling Champ, and JMH Hall of Famer, Jim

Gorsline, 6/54, a 3 time State Wrestling Champ. Both gentlemen

gave a short pep talk to the team and enjoyed the match. Glenville

had no team in attendance, so the 3 remaining competed. Maple

Hts. still seems to be in charge, winning many of the matches be-

tween St. Gabriel and JMH. Be sure to mark your calendars for an

annual tournament planned for February each year named in Coach

Gibbons Honor.

On March 9, 2017, six JMH seniors attended the Cleveland Rotary

Club’s luncheon for—Who’s Who in CMSD, at Windows on the

River. This April, fifty seniors will also travel to Washington DC

and Columbus as part of the Senior festivities.

JMIT junior Rochell Bradley was selected as the December All

Star Kid for the Cleveland Cavaliers. Congratulations!

From the Athletic Director & JMH Sports

John Marshall High School Athletics have been through a very posi-

tive and successful first semester of the 2016-2017 school year.

Our fall sports were very successful in Senate League play. The John

Marshall Lawyers placed third in volleyball, second in golf, second

in soccer, and were league champions in girls’ tennis. Lawyer foot-

ball showed great improvement, and we are looking forward to the

reopening of Lawyer Stadium in the fall of 2017.

Winter sports - Boys’ basketball had travelled to Barberton and East

Liverpool early in the season. Update: Boys’ team participated in

Tournament play on March 1st, beating Rhodes in a come from

behind 20 point deficit, with a final score of 54-50. The crowd

rushed the court! On March 4th , the Lawyers played Brecksville

Broadview Hts. in the next round, falling to them with a score of

72-51. The Girls’ basketball team and has shown improvement and

also had trips to the Chippewa Tournament and Akron. Our bowling

team stood at the top of the Senate standings. Wrestling and swim-

ming have had decent attendance. Update: the Wrestling team

ended up winning the City Championship.! Congratulations to

all participants! We are in the early stages of building a John Marshall Athletics

Booster Club. We are in dire need to increase our funding to help

our programs grow and compete, not just in the Senate League but

all around Cuyahoga County and the State of Ohio.

If you are interested in assisting in the growth and development of

John Marshall High School Athletics, and in helping us put our Law-

yers back where we belong, please contact me at the address below.

We would love to have our community work with us in fundraising

and booster club development. We could use your time and talents.

1976 State Runner-Up Trophy

Ms. Beebe visited the new school and thought it would be a good

time to produce the 1976 Runner-up State Volleyball Trophy. She

met with Ken Tischler and Deborah Fought on 9/12/16 to return the

trophy to John Marshall.

Ms. Beebe wrote, “For sure this trophy represents a time in the his-

tory of John Marshall as well as the Cleveland Public Schools. The

fete that this team did will never be repeated. Why? This 1976

team didn't go to any camps as most schools now do. They began

their quest the first day volleyball practice could begin. No summer

league play. Their team drive to succeed was extraordinary and

even surprised themselves.

Hardly any money came from the

athletic department to achieve this

goal. We had to work the concession

stand at all basketball games to ob-

tain money as well as sell can-

dy. Nothing was handed to them for

free.

To have these student athletes

achieve what they did is monumental

to say the least. All their names have

been inscribed on the trophy.”

Ms. Beebe kept the trophy so it would not be lost when the old John

Marshall was destroyed. And now the trophy rests in the new John

Marshall trophy case for students to enjoy.

Powered by love and sup-

port, I conquered (most of)

the mountains around Lake

Tahoe. America’s “Most

Beautiful Bike Ride”

comes Most important,

Team in Training cyclists

raised $3.6 million for

blood cancer research and

patient support programs.

Those funds will go directly towards the kind of research that

has already succeeded in finding a wonderful new therapy for

my rare disease- 3 pills a day!- that I’ve taken for two years,

with miraculous results. It will also help to provide financial

assistance for those facing high copays and medication

costs. AMBBR marked my 11th season with Team in Training,

and, God willing, it won’t be my last. Pictures are of me and

my lovely daughter Nicole at the finish line. My jersey had

ribbons with the names of heroes I was asked me to remem-

ber. As always, they provided extra inspiration needed for

some of the steeper climbs. Again, many thanks for your love

and support through this amazing journey. I couldn’t do it

without you!

A group of six artists from Martin County have given to resi-

dents much distinguished and award-winning art, and countless

hours encouraging and promoting the arts.

A show was given in their honor at the Arts Council of Martin

County Gallery in Stuart, FL. I was one of six artists chosen to

be in this show. I teach at the Hobe Sound Fine Arts League

gallery in Hobe Sound and at the Artist Nook in Stuart.

The Masters and Mentors show was in December 2015.

I also had a piece of my work chosen for the Florida Calendar

for 2016. In Feb. of 2016 one of my pieces of art work was cho-

sen for the poster art for the Hobe Sound Art Fest.

When I was at JM in the 50’s, I took as much art as I could but

never thought of being an Art Teacher. Teaching art to begin-

ners started after I moved to Florida and people would ask me if

I could teach them how to paint.

Last fall, President Ken Tischler, was contacted by Frank

Kellogg, 6/68, with

some questions re-

garding the Pavers.

His sister Linda

(6/60) and brother in

law Bill Hoge (6/59)

had passed away and

wondered if he could

spread some of their ashes

beneath their bricks. Ken

knew that it could be done,

but thought of the possibility

of putting them IN the brick.

So Ken called Milano Monuments and asked if they

could drill a hole in the side of each brick.

Frank would have to put some of their remains in a 3/8 “

wide x 3” long tube and they could be put in that hole..

When the pavers were installed, Frank and his wife were

there to assist. What a great idea to honor a loved one!

FYI—Bill Hoge was a star quarterback for JMH and an

outstanding basketball player. In one game he scored 40

points, setting a school record—which may still be un-

broken.

‘OUR’ John Marshall is gone, but the new JMHS has incor-

porated several of its architectural elements. The Alumni

Plaza is located on the Viola St. side, near the student en-

trance. Several original granite steps provide three rows of

seating, with rows of red brick pavers interspersed between

them. You can leave your mark and become a permanent

part of the new school. This is a great opportunity to pay

tribute to a past JMHS graduate, a teacher, yourself, or your

family. Red pavers are deeply engraved with your name and

class year, with lettering painted black. Funds raised by the

sale will go to the John Marshall Endowment fund, which is

Please include an obit/funeral card or provide the

IMPORTANT

Please do not use the previously supplied prepaid envelope.

We will not receive it!

Remember:

We never share your information with anyone,

except Reunion Committees!

Please Help Us Update our Records! We strive to keep our database up-to-date so that we can provide addresses to

your reunion committees and keep the communication lines open with all alum-

ni. If you have friends or relatives who graduated from Marshall please and

they are not receiving our Newsletter, it’s likely that we don’t have their current

address. Please spend a few moments to let us know of a name change and/or

their location. One of the most difficult and time consuming tasks for any reun-

ion committee is trying to find missing classmates. Please let us know when

and where you move in order to keep our costs down—the Post Office charges

us FIRST CLASS RATES on returns and forwards for a limited time.

You can always email us at info@jmhalumni.com or

call us at (440) 356-0249. We want to hear from you!
